Since 2000, Andy and Angela Smith have owned and operated a trade business. This husband-and-wife team has walked in your shoes. They’ve experienced the chaos, the crazy-long hours, the leaking money bucket, and the crippling stress. With $188,000 outstanding at one point, Andy dug his heels in, vowing to work harder and longer to solve the problem. It’s all he knew.

Even though his heart was in the right place, it was a soul-destroying situation and it took a heavy toll on the couple’s marriage. The same-old methods just weren’t working anymore. Thinking outside of the toolbox, Andy and Angela invested in their education and applied new knowledge to transform their trade business into a profitable and systemised enterprise in just 18 months.

Ultimately, Andy got off the tools. Now, it’s Andy and Ange’s mission to have a positive impact on your life and the trade industry as a whole.
